RUMOR: Adam Beach to Star in Turok Movie?

One would think that after the second and third Jurassic Park movies flopped, no one would go near a dinosaur laden flick again, but according to rumors, unfortunately that is not the case.
According to MTV Multiplayer Blog, hunky Adam Beach (Windtalkers, Flags of Our Fathers) is set to play the hero Turok in the upcoming movie which will hopefully be based upon the comics instead of the games, but you know Hollywood. Considering the fact that Turok was originally a Native American in the comics and the games pre-Buena Vista, this is hopefully the direction they would go especially when you factor in Beach’s heritage. However, Buena Vista also has a large hand in the movie market, so it could indeed be a movie version of the latest and shameful Turok game instead of the highly cool N64 original.
Says Beach:
“We just finished the animated movie and now we’re going into the feature film movie [which should lens] hopefully in a couple years. We’re about to set up meetings to develop a script and put it out there. I’ll have to beef up, and be a good guy, and save the world!”
Hopefully, if the rumors are true, it will travel along the lines of Iron Man and be just freaking awesome as hell, but I seriously doubt it.
